I had symptoms for a while. Finally went to the Cleveland Clinic where I was diagnosed with early stage ALS in March 2021. I’d rather do more than just take unaffordable meds to slow the disease a tiny bit. Even with the uncontrollable crying I haven’t lost my sense of humor. I’d buy a van and live in it down by the river to be close to Northwestern. I’m serious. Please sign me up for the NU-9 trials if it becomes available before my time is up.
